Everyone wanted the throne.
Almost no one prepared for winter.
That’s why they lost it.
Game of Thrones wasn’t about power.
It was about who could survive when the world turned hostile.

Online MBA is the biggest load of bullcrap. It's a fugazi. It's a woozy-wazy. It's a fairy dust. A vaporware.
I don't know what idiocy Kamath was referring to — but my earnest belief is online MBAs are one of them.
arréy baba, the sole 'raison d'être' of an MBA is/was the peer learning & networking & the 'brand'.

You'd have your name chiselled in the finest of marbles adorned with the finest of silk so that you could buy your missus — lobster and steak dinner and tiffany's and pearls.

@ShaykhSulaiman This your guy? (Thread)

@TuckerCarlson on Iraq & Afghanistan: "I just have zero sympathy for them or their culture. A culture where people just don’t use toilet paper or forks... They can just shut the f*** up and obey, is my view."

1. In the UK, there is a difference - in law & medicine - between a child & an adolescent with the competence to address medical interventions

Competence requires a young person to have enough understanding and intelligence to fully grasp …
2. … a medical treatment's purpose, effects, and risks, allowing them to consent without parental help.

Competence is assessed individually by the clinician who evaluates competence based on the adolescent’s developmental stage, cognitive ability, and experience, …
4. … not just their age.
This process ensures a young person’s autonomy is respected, in the context of their development

if deemed competent, the adolescent can consent.

If an adolescent is deemed not competent, & a clinician considers treatment as necessity, parents can…

Day 4️⃣ of Criminal Justice Reform ⚖️

Every day through the end of the year, we're pointing to high-impact policy ideas to reform the criminal justice system without making it bigger.

Let's talk about treating people humanely during incarceration🧵 Infographic with text: The criminal legal system doesn't have to get any bigger in 2026. These policy ideas can lead to meaningful reform.
It’s no secret that prisons & jails are brutal places, plagued with human rights abuses.

Here’s the reality: the vast majority of people behind bars will be released back into their communities one day, surely taking their trauma with them.
One of the most forthright ways the carceral system can improve its treatment of people during incarceration and reduce their trauma is to end solitary confinement once and for all.

Around the world, solitary is viewed as a form of torture, yet it’s commonplace in the U.S.

I'm waiting for Trump administration to promote using the idea of minting the platinum coin to reduce long term interest rates. Seems like something they would be all over, especially when Trump installs his guy at the Fed.
The way this would work is Bessent would deposit a huge-denomination, newly-minted platinum coin at the Fed, which would credit Treasury's General account. Bessent would then announce a corresponding sharp reduction in coupon Treasury issuance.
Not only would they use this to say they're addressing housing affordability (despite the fact that this is not the right way to do that), I could also see them using this as a means of protecting the bond market from crashing if SCOTUS kills IEEPA tariffs and orders rebates.

- Ceasefire: a truce of at least 60 days is envisaged so that a referendum can be held in Ukraine
1/3
- Territory: this involves painful territorial concessions in eastern Ukraine (#Donbas). The Russian side argues that Donbas is "non-negotiable."
- Security of Ukraine: there is talk of strong security guarantees.
2/3
- Size of the Ukrainian army: Ukraine is said to be maintaining a large army instead of reducing it, as was suggested in earlier drafts.
- #NATO: descriptions of the plans suggest that Ukraine will commit to not joining NATO

It’s clear you chose the wrong side and are now on the back nine of your time still living in this country. You should probably go ahead and leave before you no longer can.
Good luck. You’re going to lose. Bookmark this post, ‘Ann Marie’. Pin it up in your cubicle. I’ll let the widow know you’re exploiting her dead husband and her social media.
Yeah, tell me about it. I always chuckle to myself ab it when you immediately come to the psychological aid of your fellow traitors whose egos were just shattered by my making them my personal fucking ragdoll.
